I had some ras el hanout in the back of the cupboard and thought I better use it for something. As it’s Middle Eastern chickpeas came to mind and I thought I’d do a tasty salad. This salad was amazing! The spicy chorizo, warming spices and zingy preserved lemon. I am also addicted to semi…

Roasted Pistachio and Herb Crusted Lamb Rack
Lamb rack is such a treat for me so I wanted to make sure I made it as tasty as possible. I remember having a macadamia crusted lamb chop which was delicious. I used pistachio for mine and dried herbs. I love pepper so I added a good amount of this too. Using mustard as…
Smoked Salmon Salad with Lemony Baked Courgettes and Caper Berries
As snowdrops are flowering and daffodils are starting to shoot. I decided to make myself a nice zingy and light salad. I always associate courgettes with summer so thought I would use them to give myself hope that winter will be over soon. This definitely reminded me of summer and holidays. It was yummy and…
Spring Onion Pancakes with a Soy and Sesame Dipping Sauce
This is such a great way of using up spring onions, it’s quick easy and really tasty. I like my spring onions softened so rather than added them to the dough after you’ve made it I add it straight away. It’s traditional used using the green parts but I like it with the white parts…
Halibut Fillets with a Shrimp, Caper, Lemon and Butter Sauce
Halibut is defo one of my favourite fishes and as it is a flat fish the flavour is beautiful and delicate. It is so meaty and as it is a large flat fish you get a really decent fillet. As it’s not the cheapest fish in the world I do go all out. So drenching…
Pheasant, Bacon, Potato and mushroom One Pot
Where I live is rural, so we get a lot of game available. Luckily over the years we have built a good relationship with our local gamekeeper so we can order directly. This is the first time I have come across pheasant thighs. I treated them like chicken thighs but cooked them less. They are…
Tandoori Chicken Salad with a Mango Dressing
I love tandoori chicken and poppadoms with the yummy chutneys, the mango is my favourite. So to get an Indian hit I thought I would turn it into a salad. Rather doing a whole leg of chicken, I changed it to chunks. For the poppadom element I used flaked almonds and finally for the mango…
Squash Gnocchi with Black Pudding, Mushroom and Kale
Sometimes you just fancy a quick one pan dinner that is still really tasty. This is just that. These were ingredients I had knocking about in the fridge from a fry up and salad. They all worked really well together and it was delicious. Instead of black pudding you could use sausage as black pudding…
Crab and Avocado Toasts
So we took the dogs to the coast for their walkies and every time we go down we treat ourselves to a fresh crab as I love them so much. This was our brunch the next day it was so delicious. I really like a mixture of brown and white meat as I think it…
BLT Salad with Pecans and a Mustard Dressing
I love bacon, lettuce and tomato. As it’s winter I decided to use sun dried tomatoes instead of fresh and added some pecans for some crunch. It’s a slightly odd combination but was very yummy none the less. The mustard dressing made it nice and zingy. Ingredients (serves 2) For the Salad For the Dressing…
